9. There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.

10. Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don't wish it were easier; wish you were better.

21. If you want to achieve excellence, you can get there today. As of this second, quit doing less-than-excellent work.

22. If you genuinely want something, don't wait for it — teach yourself to be impatient.

24. If you are not willing to risk the usual, you will have to settle for the ordinary.

25. Before anything else, preparation is the key to success.
